I prepared this last night (Sept 23) and while good I will stay with my own. It was not as flavourful as my standby which is based on store bought (Costco)bruschetta. I strain 3/4 of a 940 gram container but add 2 tbs of the bruschetta liquid to which I add 1/2 chopped large sweet onion, 1 cup chopped green pepper, 1 medium zucchini chopped into 4th's, 2 small chopped ribs of celery, 1 1/2 cups chopped mini carrots and 6 large chopped mushrooms. To this I add 2 tsps garlic powder, 1 tsp Montreal chicken spice (or to taste) 1 tsp McCormicks Malabar black pepper (or to taste). I bring the juice to a gentle boil, add all the veg's and spices at once, stir to mix, let simmer uncovered for about 3-5 min's to ensure veg's are hot and still el dente. Just before serving I stir in 1-2 tbs romano cheese and serve. There is a good tasting liquid with this and I often serve the ratatouille over rice. Also a nice accompaniment to spaghettini or over mashed potatoes and a sneaky way to serve veg's to children because it is tasty.
